Patch must be applied to a clean 1.0 (not 1.0.1c).

So if you copy files from a 1.0.1c into a 1.0.2 - which effects will that have? Hard to say - the files you replace are they now using 1.0.1c code, or 1.0.2 compatible code?

 

So my suggestion would be:

- Revisit all the changes you did manually - and redo them manually now for 1.0.2

Some parameters may have changed - try to observe which and edit accordingly.

[Scooternutz]

I have manually altered my options file to reflect my entire width. I entered the values into a 1.0.2. version lau in the monitorsetup folder. I have tried the Phantom Monitor Fix. I have tried full screen and not. Nothing has worked. Here is my setup:

_ = function(p) return p; end;

name = _('Camera+Shkval+ABRIS');

Description = 'Shkval on the left monitor,ABRIS on the left and camera on the center';

Viewports =

{

Center =

{

x = 1680;

y = 0;

width = 1920;

height = 1200;

viewDx = 0;

viewDy = 0;

aspect = 1.6;

}

}

Shkval =

{

x = 2095/2;

y = 540;

width = 1264/2;

height = 1008/2;

}

ABRIS =

{

x = 425;

y = 185;

width = 1230/2;

height = 850;

}

 

I am at a loss.

BACK UP, BACK UP, BACK UP, EVERYTHING.

[Panzertard]

Thanks Gentlemen, I cannot assist with real test since I lack the monitors for it.

I hope you guys can give us some info on what

- worked in 1.0 / 1.0.1c

- no longer works in 1.0.2

- any other changes in parameters / files that you suspect can add to the issues you are seeing.

 

When we get enough data to conclude a little bit better, then we file a bugreport.

But we need those hard facts on what worked in in 1.0/1.0.1 vs 1.0.2. detailed - step by step.

 

o7, Panzer.

Here is the options.lau segment:

["graphics"] =

["color"] = "32",

["heatBlr"] = 0,

["scenes"] = "medium",

["water"] = 2,

["lights"] = 2,

["height"] = 1200,

["civTraffic"] = 1,

["resolution"] = "1920x1200",

["haze"] = 1,

}, -- end of ["graphics"]

I can get it to work but it crams into one screen. Since I am only using two monitors it has to be the phantom monitor fix. This program mimics a third monitor. I have a center and left monitor. The Phantom Monitor Fix tells the sim that I have a third monitor to the right so everything centers up.

Ok PZ got it to work, it is just a simple fact that the Lua files may have been changed. Just need to be reintroduced to the changes and saved in that format. I don't get that error anymore after re-saving those settings in the new lua format, restarted BS and got the error, reset the option-menu and re selected the monitors setups in there and pressed ok, and restated.

Worked. :thumbup::thumbup:

Good news indeed. :thumbup:

I hope this works for everybody.

 

Perhaps someone can elaborate and tell others what they need to look out for? :)

[Scooternutz]

I correctly modified the lua file and still no joy. It just refuses to go over the the 2nd monitor to the left. My ABRIS and schval show up over my cockpit in the same screen. I even tried to set my width to 16000 in the options.lua and still the same thing.

hey scooter can you jump on 104th TS3 and I can help you walk through it?

Scooter one more ting I slept on it. I woke up read a few post and thoguht about maybe you 1.02 installation might of goten broken. please check your

C:\user\name\\look for your game informations.

I just don't know. I know that it is working. I have the cockpit center and the ABRIS and Schval are overlapped on the 3D pit. It doesn't want to see the 2nd monitor to the left. Tried it on the right, same thing. It may be a system problem outside of the sim. It doesn't make any sense. I will keep trying to find a solution. I am growing tired of trying to get it to work. I may just leave it alone for a little bit. As for the application folder under "users" there is no ED folder there for BS or FC2. ??

[71st_Mastiff]

rgr that just looking for other solutions.. Ill browse around in the forum see what I can dig up if Nasties about I hope he chimes in?:thumbup:

[Scooternutz]

Right on. I posted a new thread with all my info in it. I hope it works. You can imagine my frustration I am sure. It doesn't make sense and I hate the fact that I can't fix it.

[Panzertard]

Scooter - have you tried installing outside the C:\Program Files? As in C:\Games\Eaglye Dynamics ?

[Scooternutz]

That is a thought PZ. I will most likely wait for some time before I do a reinstall. I am worried about using up all my keys. I have reinstalled about 6 times already.

 

Strange enough, I never am asked to reenter it when I install on my main machine.

[Panzertard]

No, it wont eats the keys - the keys are already stored on your computer - it will recognize it from the previous install.

It will ask for activation - but yout wont spend a key on it.

 

Even if it does, support will assign you a new set when you have spent your first set of 8.

[Scooternutz]

Right then, off to test your theory!
